This note focuses on mollusc and crustacean species that are additional to those listed as present in Glasgow Botanic Gardens by Hancock (1999). MOLLUSCA Since Hancock's original On the Wildside account (Hancock, 1999) there have been several visits to the Gardens, particularly to the glasshouses, by specialist conchologists, and several bioblitzes. This note summarises the recent findings and reviews one of the historical records mentioned by Hancock.
The moths that have been recorded in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens, Scotland over the years are reviewed and assessed in the context of the City of Glasgow, the vice-county of Lanarkshire (VC77), and the U.K. in general. The additions to the list since the last review in 1999 are highlighted. Some rare and endangered species are reported, though the comparatively low frequency of sightings of several normally common species suggests that the site is generally under-recorded. The same is true of Glasgow and Lanarkshire in general.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
